"This company installed 7 new LED recessed lights and a dimmer switch in my kitchen. They were quick to respond with a quote that was reasonable. They showed up on time. The crew was super respectful of my space, cleaning up as they went along and very meticulous when it came to installing the lights to my layout specifications. I would definitely recommend and will gladly hire them for future electrical work."

"Ed came over immediately and inspected our situation, thoroughly checked everything, and applied the right fix to the issue. Our townhome wasn't quite properly built, the wiring was mixed up and overloaded. He knew exactly what to do and had the right tools to fix it! Arrived quickly, simply explained what he was going to do, followed through, and wasted no time. Even found a few extra issues he warned us about and fixed! It was majorly impressive to see a master electrician at work and I fully recommend him for any electrical work."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window.
